Considering viscoelastic saturated soil, The transient dynamic response of an elastic pile is studied. The pile-soil system is divided into thin layers, the control equations of the soil are solved respectively by using Laplace transform. Considering the mixed boundary-value conditions at the interface of pile and soil, expression is derived to describe the relationship between the inner force ...

Free-vibration-resonance frequencies of a film/substrate layered specimen depend on the dimensions, densities, and elastic constants both of the film and substrate. Then, the elastic constants of thin films are inversely determined by measuring the resonance frequencies and the other parameters. Because contributions of the film elastic constants to the resonance frequencies are small, high acc...

Free vibration of a simply-supported magneto-electro-elastic doubly-curved nano-shell is studied based on the first-order shear deformation theory in the presence of the rotary inertia effect. To model the electric and magnetic behaviors of the nano-shell, Gauss’s laws for electrostatics and magneto statics are used. By using Navier’s method, the partial differential equations of motion are red...

This study aims to determine the relationship between work-life balance and quality of life among employees in Central Java during COVID-19 pandemic. The respondents this were 349 that gathered by voluntary sampling. measuring instrument used was Fisher Work-life Balance Scale adapted Gunawan, et al. (2019) with Crobach’s alpha coefficient 0,877 Quality scale translated into Indonesian research...

A new algorithm based on the Schwartz-Neumann alternating technique is developed for the solution of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics problems. An analytical solution for an elastic crack, with arbitrary crack-face loading, is used inside an initial stress iterative procedure as an addition to the finite element solution for the uncracked body. Iteration processes of the alternating method an...

UNLABELLED Although significant advances have been made in understanding the molecular mechanisms that influence tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) metastasis, less is known about the association between the cellular elastic modulus and TSCC metastasis. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) nanoindentation via the rate-jump method was used to detect the elastic modulus of TSCC cells from patients an...

Energy is an internal variable during rock deformation and failure, its dissipation conversion law can reflect the rock’s damage deterioration state. Analysis of failure process from perspective energy helpful to deeply understand mechanism damage, fracture instability has important theoretical practical significance for stability evaluation support control surrounding rock. In this study, thro...

A finite-element model (FEM) incorporating geologic properties characteristic of a subduction zone is compared with FEMs approximating homogeneous elastic halfspaces (HEHS)s to investigate the effect of heterogeneity on coseismic and postseismic deformation predictions for the 1995 Colima-Jalisco M•o=8.0 earthquake. The FEMs are used to compute a coefficient matrix relating displacements at obs...

Our aim was to determine the structural factors that determine the mechanical adaptation of the carotid arterial wall in stroke-prone hypertensive rats (SHRSP). Distensibility-pressure and elastic modulus-stress curves assessed by in vivo echo-tracking measurements indicated a reduction in arterial stiffness in 13-week-old SHRSP compared with Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). Elastin and collagen conten...
